We found the factors 473,470 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 473,470 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 3706,3302
2 | 3706, 3302 |
1853, 1651 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 1853 x 1651 = 6118606
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/6118606
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 473/3706,470/3302 is 1/6118606
The formula of LCM is LCM(a1,a2,a3....,an) = ( a1 × a2 × a3 × .... × an) / GCF(a1,a2,a3....,an) x common factors(if more than 2 numbers have common factors).
We need to calculate greatest common factor of 3706,3302 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(3706,3302) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(3706,3302) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(3706,3302) = ( 3706 × 3302 ) / 2
LCM(3706,3302) = 12237212 / 2
LCM(3706,3302) = 6118606
